Anyone Have These?

 
I am thinking about getting this off-road lamp kit for the H3.. Anyone have this?
 
If so, how bright is it? Your opinion of "Is it worth it?"

I think Karl(LHB) has 'em!!! They're PRETTY SWEET!!!

Here's his pic from his Photo Album!!
 

Nice Pic BTW!!

Anybody got a link where these can be located???  I like the look!  How about wiring?
 
I've been Googling like crazy but have not found them!!

here is the part number.... 19159112

Is that a GM part number?  It's shown in black and chrome. Is that an option?


I just checked GMPD and it's a GM PN. Cost is $268 +S&H
 
Does that include the grill and lamps?

There are 2 off-road light kits that you can get(that I am aware of).  One is with the black plastic grill (part #19159112, around $268 USD)  or the same kit, but with a stainless steel grill (part # 19132765, around $326 USD).  Too bad for me I found this out too late, as I ordered the plastic grill, then paid extra to get it chromed.  They do appear on ebay occasionally, and I was able to find mine a bit cheaper. They install easily, as all the wiring runs are already present, and all other parts, including switch, harnesses, crimps, tie straps, lights, and excellent instructions are included.  You just need to remove some existing wire shunts, crimp supplied harness to wires, install switch in vacant location in dash, take off bumper and install new grill, and voilà!  It took about 2 hours for me to install.  They are pretty good brightness, but as they are lower down, they don't give the same coverage as if they were roof mounted.  I really like the looks, and am happy with the performance.  One concern I have, although I have not had the problem yet, is with rock chips to the lenses.  I don't drive with the included lense covers on (haven't been warned yet, most people think they are daytime running lights), so I worry about them getting dinged.

All that said, I do think "They are worth it", and really like mine.

Thanks HummerBoy!  That's a big help.
 
I just bought the same stainless grill w/o the lights.  I have to sell it and order the lighted version. 
 
Anyone want to buy my lower grill sans lights...1/2 price!?  Still in the box.

I ordered mine in stainless from Lindsay Cadillac.  They can beat GMPD on GM parts.  I got it for $318.  GMPD kills you on S&H but Luke at Lindsay Cadillac is reasonable.
 
Dennis, I don't think I can post a link to a Vendor can I?  Or do they have to pay a vendors fee here first?  I know he can save us all $$ on GM parts.

here it is on eBay in chrome for $317.98 + $10.00 shipping...

HummerBoy said the GM Version is stainless steel, which is much better than chrome.  Lindsay Cadillac sells it for $318

My local Hummer dealer has them for the H3 and they look great. Unfortunately, I was advised that particular company does not make them for the H2...bummer.

Let me clarify something for you so you are not dissappointed as I did not make it clear in my earlier posting.  I have never seen the "stainless" version in person.  As I said, I ordered the plastic version first, and just after having it chromed, saw a posting from another member here (CWO I think) who had a picture with what looked like a chrome/stainless version.  When I asked him about it, he gave me the GM part #, but could not verify if it was chromed ABS. or stainless, but another member here said he saaw one and though they were stainless.  So I am not positive which one it is exactly.  Sorry for the confusion.

bottom line... good upgrade ie: worth the money or not?

I'll see if I can find out and report back.

OK..they are chrome plated plastic.  How well does that stuff hold up to salt and water?

Actually the chromed ABS plastic is pretty tough stuff and almost bullet proof to the elements...I recommend

Thanks Dennis. Now I have to decide to spend $317 bucks on it!!

I'm glad to hear that the are ABS chrome.  I would have preferred to have had polished stainless for that grill, and ended up paying just over $200 for the ABS kit, then another $75 to have it chromed.  I was a bit sad thinking that if I had done more research, I could have found a stainless one, but as the OEm is only chromed ABS as well, I still ended up with the same as factory, but at less cost.

I can always build you a light bar

$317 seems like a hefty price but I like the look.  I'm ordering in the morning from Lindsay.

Hey Gang

Thought I'd share this with U..............

Won them on E Bay for well lets just say a deal.

My daughter tells me they showed up on Weds hopefully I'll get them mounted by Tuesday and Post a few photos. If there the same it makes for a good deal.
